Carbon Gray RL at Sequoia National Park

Went for a day trip to Sequoia National Park, the road to the General Sherman tree was one of the curviest I have ever driven. My rl handled great with stock suspension and 09 sway bar. I love this car! Check out the pics below.

Very nice. Thank you for sharing.

I love the pic driving through the sequoia.

Is that a feature of the CMBS radar? It can blast through a fallen tree? Now THAT is a feature I can use daily!

Nice pics and a beautiful place. I'm jealous of that drive. The last time I did it, it was with a swaying truck and a cabover camper. Different vibe...
